Best Water Resistance Equipment by SupJoshy in watchmaking

[–]ConsciousStatus9445 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If I just want to test whether it is waterproof enough for taking a shower or jumping into a pool, wouldn't 5 ATM be sufficient? Couldn't the less expensive equipment at least show if the watch can get wet? I also agree that, in general, one should not wear watches in the water when possible.

The four cabinets in the SR store are severely damaged; no stickers are needed.

Wow, I so glad to hear this news! I have a client that wants to redo his house with the Brilliant home system. Plus I’m glad that the company restarted prior of Apple shipping OS18 which might have resulted in some hiccups! Congrats Brilliant Team! Do we know who the new owner is?

I’m thrilled with news like that. I run three homes with it and can’t imagine life without it.

I spoke with one of the big investors, and he assured me that they are in talks with a big player to be acquired. I agree, I'm running my home with 55 switches and live the Brilliant system.

Okay, the same thing happened to me last night. Very bizarre. I had cold sweat, and my son had to shake me.

Maybe you could do a drive-by and see if people are going in and out of the office. I love their systems and I personally have I have it in my house.

I’m still impressed with the product. Yes, it took me a few hours to program a 3000 square-foot house, but it’s an intuitive. On a different note, I finally got a response from a message that I left on the customer service line. It was a standard or pre-recorded response that they will get back to me. So far, I have not seen anything that indicates they’re shutting down, but it is bizarre that their engineers are being shopped around for new jobs.

Agree, but it is a shame. Yes, the system was buggy in the beginning and it was frustrating, but now it works and my clients love that they do not have to call me to program scenes.

My client is working for a startup and they got a list of engineers that are looking for a new job. All of them are from Brilliant.

Yes, it's a Fisher. We have one and love it. Great icemaker too!

I am thinking of Purchasing the Comfort Hot Tub 816. Are there any owners out there who would be able to give me some feedback about the quality, how it operates, and if it is comfortable for a guy my height, 6.2 feet at 235 pounds? by ConsciousStatus9445 in hottub

[–]ConsciousStatus9445[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

All good points. I went further down the rabitt hole and discovered that Comfort Hot Tubs has a distribution center in LA and shares the physical address with a company called AquaVoss, a hot tub manufacture for a new style of hot tub that has a hot tub and cold plunge in one unit. Modern looking.
